I wonder is there any active discussion group or online community that people can discussion about questions of causality, especially those theoretical/mathematical ones?
I've read Judea Pearl's causality: models, reasoning and inference recently, and I have tons of questions.
It is unfortunate that David Freedman is no longer with us. he did some good work in this area. eg Article Statistical Models for Causation: What Inferential Leverage ...
I was fortunate to be able to discuss some of his ideas with him prior to his passing. He is missed. Best D. Booth
I don't see any in-depth discussion in stackoverflow, it's more of a technical community. I'd expect something like causality.stackexchange, but never found one.
It might not be exactly what you are looking for, but there is a nice course in causal inference (https://www.bradyneal.com/causal-inference-course) which is accompanied by a Slack channel (link on the course's web page). The channel provides a discussion group, where questions and curiosity are much appreciated.
If you use Twitter, I would also try to post questions under #CausalTwitter hashtag or even include Judea Pearl as he seems to be quite active there and keen on answering people's questions.
Hope this helps!
